Hey Calle,

Halvdan is right, there has been a deployment of the maintenance app that
included a bunch of irrelevant files as we accidentally deployed some files
due to a deploy process that is not really ironed out perfectly yet. That
should be nothing to worry about though.

The size of the .war file will likely go down again with the next backport.
You can safely deploy them :)
